If you are like me, you are happy to wave winter goodbye and welcome the beauty spring season brings. Along with spring, comes the need for cleaning and re-evaluation of one’s New Year resolutions made just months ago. How are you on those internal metrics? Take time as you smell the blooming flowers around you to reflect on the goals you set on January 1, 2013 by grabbing a journal, noting your progress, and planning your action steps for the next quarter to get you there. As we all can relate to - "What gets measured, is what gets done!" - begin to make your aspirations measurable by tracking your motivation to get to your desired destination. As a recent graduate, baby boomer, or career-changer, you have many experiences that led you to where you are today and yet you may be feeling restless to move in a new life direction, but not sure how to do that. Just like an artist can create a beautiful painting, you too have the ability to create and design your life to have the elements that are most important to you.Here are 3 tips that will help you reinvent a measureable new you:1. Take stock of where you are now. Identify what is working and what isn’t. Like clearing and beautifying your favorite room ask yourself what is essential to you and what is not. Once you understand where you are, you begin to uncover what is missing from your life. So then, ask yourself what will enhance it and what will not. What do you want and need to have that ideal life? Just as you want to enjoy being in your favorite room, you want to enjoy being in your life too. Write out what that new life looks like, sounds and feels like to you. The clearer this picture is, the easier it is to know what to aim for. Let it evolve.

2. Cultivate a creative, adventurous and fun spirit in the process of reinventing yourself. Create your own “bucket list” or “life list” of everything you want to do and experience in your life. Take cues from this list and try out a few of these ideas, whether it be a fun class, joining a special interest club, learning how to make fantastic Italian dinners or salsa dancing. This will open up your creative side to other areas of your brilliance that you may want to use to start a business, engage civically or just make life more fun.3. Identify and seek out your resources to support you on your reinvention journey. Ask family, friends, colleagues, professionals, or coach for what you need to help you get to where you want to be. Be willing to show your appreciation such as in a thank you card, a lunch or something that just shows you are thankful for their help. As you begin to take action on these three steps, remember to savor each bite of life solutions cake. What exactly is life solutions cake? It’s a unique coaching model that believes in taking life’s opportunities and challenges by the slice while celebrating each milestone’s achievement as one grows more empowered everyday. The approach is distinctly designed to tailor to the life transitions experienced by seasoned professionals (from employee to retiree), students (from intern to employee), and career-changers. Following a framework that identifies seven major layers of life, each with a modest number of fillings intended to capture most of the key issues that lead to a fulfilling life, together – as your coach - we break them down into more digestible pieces. The taste of clarity is so sweet!
